Simple Quilt; Bold Fabric

0 comments

I have never used fabric like this before: bold, large prints.  I designed this quilt myself – it is  just rectangles – no triangles or curves.  I have started making quilts that are simple in design, since piecing is not my favorite part of quilting; the quilting is my favorite part.  The simpler the design, the faster the quilt comes together, the faster I can get to quilting it.

I machine quilted this.  I quilted large “retro” flowers, which I thought matched the look and feel of the fabric.

The corners of the binding gave me a little bit of trouble; but every quilt needs to have a few mistakes – it proves it is homemade, right?

I made this quilt for a friend of mine to celebrate her divorce from her husband who was a complete ass.  Good riddance!
